Ooo...a Tucson owner! Sweet! We definitely need more Hyundai SUV owners over here. Adds much more of a mix of things. So if you know any other owners, tell them about HA.org. smile.gif

But welcome.gif to the site, and dont be a stranger. Feel free to post where you ever you like and ask any questions.

As for the hand brake, I'm assuming pretty much any aftermarket one will work. I personally havent seen what the stock one looks like, but if its like any other one, it should just slide off, and a new one can be put back in its place. It takes some muscle though getting them off because Hyundai like to make sure they're a super snug fit over the handbrake arm.

Any plans to lower it? I'm an old skool minitrucker, so seeing dropped SUV's & trucks is a big thing for me. tongue.gif I think a dropped Tucson rolling on 20's would look SICK!

Welcome!

There are a lot of aftermarket universal handbrake covers available that should work.
